Often times I've found a woman whose bank account outperforms a man's can often provoke much hostility from men. And if she's single, and didn't acquire it the old fashioned ways of inheriting it, screwing it, or marrying it, ...it's even worse. When she belongs to a category, or even a number of categories men often derive pleasure from disparaging, her success is all the more castrating, and a blatant slap in the face.

You don't understand.

The jealousy has nothing to do with bank accounts or other nitwits taking their advice. It simply comes down to the amount of disgust people feel when being confronted by the truth that attitude is everything. Seeing someone with no talent, skill, qualifications, idea, or anything else but energy and a little brains become a millionaire galls people who think they are smart. People with smarts, talent, qualifications, blah blah blah, or even those who think they have those qualities, can't reconcile their self-image with the simple fact that they lack the necessary energy level for real success.

Intellectuals, pseudo or otherwise, need to believe brains/talent are the only things that matter. Believing that allows forgiveness of all other faults and shortcomings.

True, but I know one thing, Oprah is smart with her money. She advocates "watching your money (duckets)"...

I can't say, i don't think she doesn't have anything worthwhile to say, but I can't stand how people blindly follow her...i never blindly follow anybody...but women follow Oprah in droves like she IS Christ! And take her word like it is the Holy Scripture

Judi, a man who derives his hostility because his woman bank account is bigger than his, has other issues below the belt that he must sort out. i would have NOOOOO Problem dating Oprah and saying, "yeah, she's got this..."

But that's only if she didn't tell what I have to do...like stop working out, stop reading, stop being a thinker and philosopher..then we have a problem.

Most guys don't have to constantly listen to their wives and/or girlfriends everyday saying "Ms. Ceo said...",...but they're always hearing "Oprah said..." or "I was watching Oprah today, and...", plus they hate her for introducing Dr. Phil to the world.

Dr Phil is an idiot...most good doctors are more interested in saving people and are NOT looking for celebrity..agreed?my girl dosen't watch opera and me and her hardly ever discuss work...i could for example tell her i'm teaching a class for the white house right now and she'd prolly just roll her eyes at me...which is exactly how i prefer it(hell yall know what i do more than she does ). I'd be the same way if she ws a ceo. Point is...secure men are secure regardless...and so are secure women. And what kinda girl would come home from work and actually explicitly mention that her ceo boss ws a woman? Answer : A girl without a boyfriend...cause such conversation shows deep inrooted feminist insecurity in her!

well Duhhhh doc....how many really good looking surgeons ya know? (ugly people are more driven than decent looking ones...the physics dept at UMCP is full of em )

Yep and each one of those ugly geeks spending all day doing crap no one cares about still uses being smart as a reason to feel good about themselves. People like R. Ray are a constant reminder that their precious brains don't matter.

. People like R. Ray are a constant reminder that their precious brains don't matter.

only if you consider celebrity and being rich the end all and be all of human success

I'd listen to stephen hawking over R ray anyday!

and brains dont matter only cause there is an equally stupid population that far out numbers the smart ones..but when the likes of R ray get tit cancer (which i really hope she does)..who do they come crying to for help?

smart people! the R Rays of the world woulda been wiped out by darwanism eons ago if it wasn't for geeks!

I have noticed that when I hang out with ugly female friends they get mad and start bashing pretty women for no reason. I mean once we went to the bowling alley, and there was this chick that works at my gym there wearing jeans and t-shirt, and the uglies were all going off on how she is a slut and such. Epic jealousy by ugly women.

Pretty much happens every time when I see an attractive women with fake boobs.

well Duhhhh doc....how many really good looking surgeons ya know? (ugly people are more driven than decent looking ones...the physics dept at UMCP is full of em )

And how many of those guys in the physic Dept want or wish they had that hot chica on their arms? And how many of them when they get a little bit a celebrity search for that hot piece? Man, if only people could balance things out, that is why smart people (who are ugly) hate on attractive people, but yet wish that they could be them, or have that hot girl...

I was listening to Farakhan a few nites ago (don't start---I on't listen to him on the reg) and I came in on a segment in which he said, "that there are women who are unattractive, but that equal to beauty"....that is very profound

I can understand somewhat, Bolt-ons don't make a women more attractive, just more pathetic if they deemed that it will give them a step up.
